During a short-circuit test, a Y-connected synchronous generator produces 100 A of short-circuit armature current per phase at a field current of 2.5 A. At the same field current, the open-circuit line voltage is measured to be 440 V.

(a) Calculate the saturated synchronous reactance under these conditions.

(b) If the armature resistance is 0.3 ? per phase, and the generator supplies 60 A to a purely resistive Y-connected load of 3 ? per phase at this field current setting, determine the voltage regulation under these load conditions.
